Mr.. seech.r.s vacant Pulpit.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
LONDON, Sept. 2I-The Bolton Journal of
Saturday, Sept II. contains the following:
We are in position to state that the Rev
Charles A. Berry, formerly pastor of St
George's-road Congregational church in this
town, aud now pastor of the Queen-street Con-
gregatlonal church. Wolverhampton, has re-
caived an invitation which he has accepted to
preach in the late Mr.. Beechers pulpit; to fulfill
which engagement Mr. Berry will cross the At
lantic in the Germanc. which leaves Liverpool
on the 5th proximo. We understand that the
projected visit does not. as some recent rumors
might predicate, imply that Mr.. Berry is in any
sense a candidate for the vacant pastorate at
Plymouth Church. The invitation has grown
out of the kindly relations which sprung up be-
tween them on the visit of Mr. Beecher to Eng
land last year. and has been accepted by Mr.
Berry to mark his great respect for the departed
preacher. The host OF friends Mr.. Berry made
during his nine years residence in our midst

veyed in the invitation to occupy the pulpit
made historic by the most eminent preacher the

Exciting Eviction Scenes.

DUBLIN, June lO.-The evictions at
Bodyke were resumed to-day, and there
was a repetition of the exciting scenes
which have attended the numerous at
tempts to evict tenants. The sheriff and
his bodyguard were %stubbornly resisted at
the house of a tenant named O'Hallorn.
The house was surrounded with an excit-
ed mob, which cheered the defenders of
the premises and urged them to hold out
O'Hallorn and his party had dug a trench
around the house and barricaded the
lower rooms, while the upper portion of
the house was occupied by ten men, in
Guiding two who had returned from
America, aud some women. The bailiffs
made an attack on the walls of the house
with crowbars, but were received with
scalding water and fed. The inspector
of police with drawn sword then mounted
a ladder placed against the side of the
house, but was beaten down.
A constable with a rifle and fixed bay
onet next mounted the ladder, but his
head was battered by the defenders. Sew
eral gashes were inflicted upon him and
and he returned. Another constable also
attempted to climb the ladder, but he
failed. A second ladder was then pro-
vided and several constables mounted it,
but were beaten back. Cox essayed to
climb up the ladder to speak to the in
mates Of the house, but the poli'e pre-
vented him from doing 30. Finally a con
stable entered with a rife and fixed bay
onet, but the rife was wrest ed from him
and his life was imperilled, when Father
Harmon interfered and commanded a ces
sation of hostilities. The inmates were
then arrested and the work of eviction
was carried out.

Bricklayers' Strike.

CHICAGO, June 1O.-The attempt OF
the Bricklayers' Union to arbitrate the
difference with employers, has failed.
The bosses this afternoon declined to ar.
bitrate, and the end of the lockout is
apparently as far away as ever. The ac-
ton of the master masons, it is thought,
will cause master carpenters to adhere to
their nine hour plan, and the result will
be thousands OF idle men added to those
already out of work. The builders cen-
trail council has adopted resolutions rec.
ommending TO all subordinate associations
the establishment of a uniform work day
and commencing the action OF the master
masons.
ST PAUL, June lO.-Three hundred
and fifty union bricklayers quit work to
day as an expression of sympathy with
the striking carpenters. The brioklayers
make no demand for themselves. A
general mass meeting OF all building
trades will be held tomorrow night,
when the question of a general strike
among all building trade workers will be
considered.
